Hi, it's Kathy today, and I've a Funky Daze card to share with you


All this month we're sharing projects made using papers from the Funky Daze CD so hopefully by now you're getting a good idea of how much there is on it. 
Normally selling at a measly £3.99, but if you buy it during April
you can have it for just £1....what a treat!

Anyway, this time I've made a really quick and simple card using designs from the "Ruby Tuesday" section of the Funky Daze CD


Materials and Tools

Papers: "Ruby Tuesday" from the Funky Hand  Funky Daze CD
the designs were all printed on textured white Bazzill card
HAPPY is one of a set of 3 "happy" dies (Memory Box)
"birthday" is printed directly onto the card from the pc
Tiny black gems
Black card

I glued the striped paper onto black card before die-cutting the letters and the accent stripes

Don't forget, this CD is on offer in the SHOP for just £1 at the moment so don't miss out! Here's a quick look at just some of the designs you'll get on the CD


We'd love to see what you make with Funky Hand goodies too.....

Funky Daze - It's all about the glasses!

Morning all, back with another project to share for Funky Hand! As we are still in April (just) my project is still using the Funky Daze CD which you can get here for just £1!!! 



My project for today I kept it simple. I dug out a die I hadn't used before. I printed out a couple of different sheets at the beginning of the month as I had printer issues and thought that might be the end for my not so little HP. I layered up the paper on black to make it stand out more, I added the die cut glasses and a sentiment. I then added a couple of small gems to the top of the glasses and then in the corners of the card.


Having had a bit of a desk tidy up I found a strip of paper (when I say strip it was less than 4 inches wide and not much longer!! I couldn't resist making a mans version of the above card, obviously without the gems and with an added moustache! 


Both of them together


Thats all for today! 

Thanks for looking!

A Little Bit Of....

... Funky Daze to brighten your day!  I've made a cute basket with papers from the Funky Daze collection plus a little bunting.  Perfect for a Mum to Be Gift!


Really easy to make and the papers were perfect!  Not sure if the baby will be a girl but I liked it to be bright so it was a bit pink themed!

Take a closer look at the Funky Daze CD

Hi everyone, Anice here,

I hope you have been enjoying the wonderful creations that the Design Team have been sharing this month using the Funky Hand original CD Funky Daze.  I know I have.

I was thinking about it and just seeing a few pictures on the website doesn't give you a really good idea of what you actually get to print off and use in your crafting. So, I've put together a video giving you a much clearer idea of what you will find on it.  

Funky Daze is on sale for just £1.00.  Hopefully this video will make you want to order it today. :)





Did you enjoy the video?  Let me know what you think.

Until next time
Anice xx

Funky Daze - Fourth Day

There is some wonderful colour collections on the Funky Daze cd - this particular one is called Fourth Day and is just perfect for males!

All the papers, with exception to the blue one, I've printed as A6 so that I can fit 4 different papers on a sheet of A4 card.  The patterns are also small enough so that they are not lost in the layering and overlapping.  This was a really quick card to make - great when you're in a hurry!

Candles

I've made these cute candles by printing papers from Funky Daze - Son Day collection and then rolling them up.  The papers were printed as A6 size (4 on a sheet of A4 thin card) and then I rolled them around a skewer.  The 'flames' are jute string that I've glued just inside the top of the candle.


Sentiment is a stamp from the Our Betty collection.  Don't forget that the cd is only £1 and the stamp set is also just £1!!

"ZOO" mini album by Kathy


Hi, it's Kathy today, and this time it's a mini album I have to show you


All this month we're sharing projects made using papers from the Funky Daze CD and I hope you've taken advantage of the April special offer and grabbed your own copy for the amazing price of just £1

Anyway, It's been ages since a I dabbled in the wonderful world of mini books so I thought it was time - and what a great way to show off lots of the paper designs too ;)

Well, having made the Starburst card for my last post here, I'd sort of fallen in love with the colours in the "Half Way" section of the Funky Daze CD and I couldn't resist using them again!
This is a really neat little book design, where the pages have a simple zig-zag formation and are all folded up into a wrap around cover




Materials and Tools

Papers: "Half Way" from the Funky Hand  Funky Daze CD
the designs were all printed on textured white Bazzill card
Letters cut with an X-cut alphabet die
EK Success border punch
Thin leather thong for fastening
Ink for edging

So here we go with a picture show - from the photos I think you'll be able to see how it works. I hope you like it





There's enough room in this one for 15 photos, but the clever way this book is made means you can have as many pages as you want, then just make the cover to fit around them.  Mine is quite small, only about 8x10 cms, but again, its easy to adapt for the size of photos you want to put inside.
The last photo shows how it looks when the  book is lying flat when it's all folded in and fastened up 


Don't forget, this CD is on offer in the SHOP for just £1 at the moment so don't miss out! Here's a quick look at just some of the designs you'll get on the CD



We'd love to see what you make with Funky Hand goodies too.....

Feed the birds!!

Hi everyone!! 

Its time for me to share another make for Funky Daze month using the Funky Daze original CD ROM. This CD is actually one of my first ever buys from Funky Hand all those years ago! 

I used a Silhouette store box cutfile with the Monday's Child colourway. I am still in the super spring celebration mood and these colours were just perfect for the job!! I made a little birdy treats box. This is actually one of my dad's 60th birthday pressies, he LOVES feeding the birds so I thought it was the perfect way to present the seed.

So, whats on the CD you ask?? From the cool blues and greens of Monday Morning to the vibrant pink and black of Saturday shopping you are sure to find a collection of backing papers that will be perfect for your next craft project, papers and wordbooks all ready for you to print and go!!!

Starburst card by Kathy


Hi, it's Kathy today, and I've a Funky Daze card to share with you



All this month we're sharing projects made using papers from the Funky Daze CD so hopefully by now you're getting a good idea of how much there is on it. 
Normally selling at a measly £3.99, but if you buy it during April
you can have it for just £1....what a treat!

Anyway, this time I've made a card, and used a few of the designs from the "Half Way" section of the Funky Daze CD



Materials and Tools

Papers: "Half Way" from the Funky Hand  Funky Daze CD
the designs were all printed on textured white Bazzill card
Nested Star die set (MFT DieNamics)
hand-cut starburst panels
Ink for edging

I cut the largest star twice, once as a whole star for the base, then a second time taping the large one and the next size down die together so you get a "frame" shape.  The other stars were cut in the same way, so that instead of being layers of paper one on top of another, they all "nest" inside the largest star frame making a less bulky card


Don't forget, this CD is on offer in the SHOP for just £1 at the moment so don't miss out! Here's a quick look at just some of the designs you'll get on the CD


We'd love to see what you make with Funky Hand goodies too.....

Funky Elephants!

Morning all, back with my second Funky Hand project of the month!! This month the DT are all using one of the fabulous CD's which has been reduced in the shop for the whole month to just £1!! This months CD is Funky Daze!


Just look at all of these fab papers included on the disc!! You could literally be there for hours looking through and choosing which to use!! 


For my cards I decided to do a set in the pink colours after making 2 in blues/greens! I printed out some of the fab papers then had to figure out what to make!! I ended up with 2  more of the cutest baby cards you ever did see! 





For my second card I did exactly the same as the first one but changed the papers around! 



The bottom of the elephants ear has been rolled slightly so it sticks out just enough to show.



Thats all for today!

For my cards I went really CAS, this was after my printer packed up and Lou came to my rescue and filled in for me one day last week!!

I ended up with 2 of the cutest baby cards you ever did see! 


For my second card I did exactly the same as the first one but changed the papers around!
